Service Description

Art Barn instructor and Master Recycler Sharon Angelina will help you turn your trash into treasures in this fun-for-the-family workshop. Using materials including discarded holiday cards, ribbon, scrap paper, and small boxes and containers that would otherwise end up in a landfill, participants will create beautiful holiday ornaments, centerpieces, or other decorations. Cookies and cocoa will be served, and staff from Recycling & Waste Reduction District of Porter County will be on site to talk about other ways you can reduce, reuse, and recycle in your home and community all year round.
